Some Observations on Trusses and Trussed Arches
A Truss may be defined to be, a mechanical mode of strengthening a beam or arch, which sustains a load over any open space; it being understood, that the points of support of the ends of the beam or arch, simply sustain the weight of the structure. Trussing is accomplished by means of braces placed in an oblique direction, and thus transferring points of support from the middle of a beam or arch to the abutments. Braces are of two kinds, viz: those which resist by compression, and those which resist by tension, and this circumstance determines that there are three principles in trussing.
